The Forsaken Lover White words and black people

The Forsaken Lover White words and black people

First published in 1972 The Forsaken Lover draws upon Chris Searle’s experience as an English teacher in a secondary school in Tobago to focus upon the deep problems of identity encountered by black people having to use the white man’s language. He shows how the white man’s language is primarily interested in vindicating the white man’s pride and culture and denying the black man his true autonomy. Black children are still being educated within a cultural context which denies them their own identity – in order to succeed they must become as white as possible. In the Forsaken Lover (the title comes from a poem written by a West Indian girl). Chris Seale presents a lively and direct account of his experience. The book is full of the children’s own writing – poetry prose drama – and by referring to their words Searle urges the need for change in policies and attitudes of language and education. The immediate context is Caribbean but the issues are common to all societies where differences of colour class and environment exist. The book will be of interest to students of race and ethnic relations education linguistics and public policy. | The Forsaken Lover White words and black people

Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter Mortal Gifts

Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter Mortal Gifts

Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter considers psychoanalysis from a fresh perspective: the therapist’s mortality—in at least two senses of the word. That the therapist can die and is also fallible can be seen as necessary or even defining components of the therapeutic process. At every moment the analyst's vulnerability and human limitations underlie the work something rarely openly acknowledged. Freud’s central insights continue to guide the range of all talking therapies but they do so somewhat in the manner of a smudged ancestral map. That blur or degree of confusion invites new ways of reading. Ellen Pinsky reexamines fundamental principles underlying by-now-dusty terms such as neutrality abstinence working through and the peculiar expression termination. Pinsky reconsiders—in some measure hopes to restore—the most essential humane and useful components of the original psychoanalytic perspective guided by the most productive threads in the discipline's still-evolving theory. Freud's most important contribution was arguably to discover (or invent) the psychoanalytic situation itself. This book reflects on central questions pertaining to that extraordinary discovery: What is the psychoanalytic situation? How does it work (and fail to work)? Why does it work? This book aims to articulate what is fundamental and what we can't do without—the psychoanalytic essence—while neither idealizing Freud nor devaluing his achievement. Historically Freud has been misread distorted maligned or at times even dismissed. Pinsky reappraises his significance with respect to psychoanalytic writers who have extended and amended his thinking. Of particular interest are those psychoanalytic thinkers who like Freud are not only original thinkers but also great writers—including D. W. Winnicott and Hans Loewald. Covering a broad range of psychoanalytic paradigms Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter will bring a fresh understanding of the nature benefits and pitfalls of psychoanalysis. It will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists and provide superb background and inspiration for anyone working across the entire range of talking therapies. | Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter Mortal Gifts

The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination

The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination

Fascinated by them unable to ignore them and imaginatively stimulated by them Charles Dickens was an acute and unsentimental reporter on the dogs he kept and encountered during a time when they were a burgeoning part of the nineteenth-century urban and domestic scene. As dogs inhabited Dickens’s city so too did they populate his fiction journalism and letters. In the first book-length work of criticism on Dickens’s relationship to canines Beryl Gray shows that dogs real and invented were intrinsic to Dickens’s vision and experience of London and to his representations of its life. Gray draws on an array of reminiscences by Dickens’s friends family and fellow writers and also situates her book within the context of nineteenth-century attitudes towards dogs as revealed in the periodical press newspapers and institutional archives. Integral to her study is her analysis of Dickens’s texts in relationship to their illustrations by George Cruikshank and Hablot Knight Browne and to portraiture by late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century artists like Thomas Gainsborough and Edwin Landseer. The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination will not only enlighten readers and critics of Dickens and those interested in his life but will serve as an important resource for scholars interested in the Victorian city the treatment of animals in literature and art and attitudes towards animals in nineteenth-century Britain.

Evolving Lacanian Perspectives for Clinical Psychoanalysis On Narcissism Sexuation and the Phases of Analysis in Contemporary Culture

Evolving Lacanian Perspectives for Clinical Psychoanalysis On Narcissism Sexuation and the Phases of Analysis in Contemporary Culture

This book presents an evolving Lacanian reading of the psychoanalytic theory of narcissism of the phases within Oedipus transference and within different types of analytic treatments. Sexual difference between psychical masculinity and femininity is formulated as a negative dialectic: both sexes are not without having and not having the phallus across levels of logical organization and the three registers of experience. Many clinical examples and vignettes are offered to illustrate Lacanian theory the permutations within sexuation as well as the various principles of Lacanian clinical practice. The Lacanian multiform criterion for the practice of psychoanalysis is presented as an alternative to the post-Freudian notions of a standard frame or a holding environment. The criterion extends the use of psychoanalysis to a larger group of clinical socio-economic and multicultural populations. Finally the book explores the criteria used for the authorization of the analyst and how supervision differs from analysis and from the teacher-student and lover-beloved relationships. | Evolving Lacanian Perspectives for Clinical Psychoanalysis On Narcissism Sexuation and the Phases of Analysis in Contemporary Culture
